AC - Weekly Update 08/09/07 : AC News

Hello there and welcome to this week’s edition of the Asheron’s Call update!



First and foremost I would like to remind everyone that Turbine will once again be at this year’s Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, Washington. The people from Turbine attending this year will be some names you know from AC, some from LOTRO and some others from DDO. Those folks we have lined up as of now are, in no particular order: Orion, Annuvin, Patience, Saffron, Quarion, Frelorn, Marketroid, and more. So please feel free to stop by our space at PAX and say hello. This is one of the few times during the year that they let us out of our cages.



Also, don’t forget that our friend Gouru has taken on the task of trying to gather all of us AC players in one place for dinner. If you would like to attend this dinner, please let him know. You can find all the information about the dinner in this thread.



This week the team is busy working on things for August event, as well as going into the beginnings of what we want to do for September and beyond. We are very pleased that the server issues have still not arisen again. This of course means that everyone is back to focusing on compelling new content, and improving the game. Some of the guys are a little tired and burnt out after doing so much extra work the last few months, but they are very excited to get back to focusing on new content and features.



We are continuing to advertise Asheron’s Call in a variety of places. The latest being Beckett Massive Online Gamer magazine. You can pick up the latest issue of the magazine at newsstands everywhere, or you can head over to their website.



Next week we will be announcing the title and date for the August event, as well as releasing the teaser images. We are undergoing some policy changes with how these things are distributed and announced, so that they will come on a more regular schedule going forward. This should help not only the players, but those great folks who run the fan-sites as well. I know firsthand how frustrating it can be waiting on something you really have no control over. It’s not exactly what I would call fun.



That’s about it for now, everyone have a great day and see you all in Dereth!
